Hey guys. I had this idea:
I would love to get a "no frills" 1911 clone and customize it myself. Slowly add new sights, trigger, breavertail, mainspring housing, hammer, just give it a whole makeover to build my own custom 1911.
Currently, I have a Rock Island Armory 1911-A1 but while it's a good value for the price, it's not exactly the kind of foundation you want when building a customized firearm like this. I want to start looking for a nice base gun to use for this project.
What would you recommend?
I was thinking maybe a Springfield Armory Mil-Spec. Does anyone have any suggestions?
